Noise Assessments

Address noise levels in your workplace with our noise risk assessment service.

Excessive noise at work is a significant yet preventable problem affecting thousands of UK workplaces. Now is the time to address noise in your workplace, as the recent Control of Noise at Work Regulations 2005 lower legally acceptable noise levels.

With RoSPA's consultancy service a fully competent noise assessor (recognised by the Institute of Acoustics), will visit your premises to determine noise exposures using appropriate instrumentation, calibration, measurement and analysis techniques.

The noise assessor will identify noise hazards and establish whether the lower and upper exposure action values are being exceeded. The noise assessor will also estimate the personal daily noise exposure of employees and identify measures required to eliminate or reduce risk, control exposure and protect employees.

Results are analysed and presented to incorporate immediate and future actions. The RoSPA consultant will also make recommendations on the selection of appropriate engineering controls, hearing protection programmes, health surveillance and PPE.

The noise assessment results will be set out in a written report and recommendations made with regard to the employers' duties under the Control of Noise at Work Regulations 2005.
